Buying a Paris Visite Pass

The Paris Visite Pass grants you access to the Metro, RER (regional express trains), buses and tramways, depending on which zones you select for one, two, three or five consecutive calendar days. It can be purchased in advance and is good from the day of first use.

For example, if you use a three-day Paris Visite Pass at 2 p.m. on Sunday, it will be good until midnight, not 2 p.m. on Tuesday.

The price of the pass depends on how many zones you need. Your choices are Zones 1-3 or Zones 1-5. Children aged 4-11 pay half-price, and children under age 4 are free.

The Paris Visite Pass offers discounts of 20% - 40% off boat tours on the Seine and admission to select tourist attractions, as well as other popular sights and services.

To validate your pass:

Write your last name (NOM) and your first name (Prénom) on the pass.

Write the card number and date of use (DD-MM-YYYY) on the reusable ticket. In French, a reusable ticket is called a "coupon."
